A little bit of self-indulgent whining first. Being stabbed sucks enough, but now I'm stuck in solid form until things heal up, otherwise I need to get MORE stitches and the first batch were bad enough. Wah.

But now the main point of posting... I've caught up on the news and some of the reports and things and holy crap you guys in New York were AWESOME. Like, yeah, there's a lot of property damage (what the hell happened to Tomkins Square Park? It looks like someone dropped a nuke on it!), but all the commentary is about how there's so fewer casualties and injured than you'd expect from the mess. So you all should be so proud of yourselves for making that happen.

And of course the Friends of Humanity leadership are disavowing themselves from the whole thing. "Rogue element, fringe minority, nothing to do with us, blah, blah." It's probably a good thing I can't use my powers for now or I'd have fried the TV by now.

I'm still kind of at the hobbling around stage, so I don't think there's much I can do to help right now, but if there's anyone wants company and warm bright light, come join me in the sunroom. The sunlamp and I would welcome it. :)

So I did my usual thing of going out through my window (since I've been asked not to ghost through the walls so much so I don't mess with the power), except it didn't work the usual way.

I mean, I couldn't ghost at all, couldn't fly and instead went straight through the window and hit the ground two floors down. Without a scratch. I mean, the window's shattered and some of the frame is busted too, and there's a cartoony me-shaped divot in the lawn, but I'm FINE. Weirdly solid and I can't pick up EM fields at all, but fine.

Does anyone know what's going on?

When did Illyana get back? I mean, I'm pretty sure that was Illyana I saw in the halls...

Arthur announced the District X Halloween event at the community center before the mission on Saturday. I just wanted to make sure people saw it, since it's important and there are more ways to help than being an X-Man. So if you're wondering what to do for the day, come to DX and help out.

Only two more Saturdays and then it's back to school. I mean, yeah, I finished my bachelor degree last year, but I've signed on for another couple of years to get my graduate degree and then I'll figure out if I want to go on and do my masters, or actually go out into the world. I talked to Dad about it when I went and saw him during the summer vacay and he suggested if I'm not sure to stay in college a bit longer and think about it.

It's weird. When I started at college I thought I'd be more than ready to dive into things once I was done my bachelor's, but now? I really don't know. Everything I used to be so sure about has changed and all I know is that I don't know anything for sure any more. Is it like that for everyone?

Oof, if it wasn't for my powers, today would have been exhausting. Thanks, Angelo, for helping me with the deliveries today. And since Mrs. Silverman had a cat and a parrot, we both win.

Uh, this is sort of embarrassing, but I'm having trouble recharging my powers after the mission and I kind of can't get solid again. Is there someone who could give me a boost, EM-wise? I don't want to be a hassle, especially with so many in the medlab, but I can't fix this myself. :(

No way it's June already! It was Christmas five minutes ago!

Ugh. The first day back at school after the holidays is always the worst. I'm so glad I can virtually teleport - getting out of bed was almost impossible this morning.

All packed and ready to go! Nothing like a week-long beach vacation before starting school again! even if I'm taking some of my textbooks as beachside reading...

Who else is coming?
